Awesome, that's why we need new carriers.
So much entertainment potential with 2500 captive people. And a very large stage to boot...

I think this has been raised before, with the question (same old question)

"Why doesn't the RAF do the same sort of thing?"


Good nethertheless

This has been around for about a year now and came out soon after the Pongos started it all with "Amarillo." I seem to remember the thread on this forum descended into a flight safety discussion about the Lynx pilot not looking where he was going!! What can go wrong at 100 kts?
Glad to see that Pusser is still recruiting the usual fine standard of 'Man things'!!

Good Stuff

Very well put together, v.v.good. Good to see one of my old UAS colleagues is still as ginger and white as ever, even in perpetual sunshine. Nice one.

You miss being a part of it and then you miss it more. Brilliant. Wasn't that Freddie Mercury at the chart table.
